Ireland does not like him


oh and to get the joke out of the way nice and early here is the other Bono LOL

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

I find him pompous, but he's a rock star, so that's supposed to be a given.

Also, he probably gives more to charity than I do, so I can't moan about him talking about third world debt and stuff.

He has lost the power to make me angry, I guess is what I am saying. Human after all.

 

[Lili Marlene]

At least his daughter isn't Peaches Geldof.

 

[rettucs]

his comments down at the Convention centre just now prompted this thread

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

I’d love to say it was the Troika but I think it was despite the Troika. The Irish people bailed the Irish people out.

Isn't this exactly what Richard Boyd Barrett et al have been saying?

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

“Europe is a thought that needs to become a feeling.”

This is a little more offensive to me.

In fairness, though, he's there in front of European leaders highlighting the money that corrupt companies and governments siphon off from poor countries, not just moaning about it in a thread like we do about our issues.

Richard Boyd Barrett probably pays his taxes.

I'd probably talk the same kinda shit as Bono if I hadn't ever had to live in the everyday world. It was fuckers like YOU, buying all his records, that prevented him from turning into a real adult

I bought a few concert tickets in the 80s also.

That's what I can't figure out. He is fucking irrelevant now right ?

I hadn't really heard or seen hide nor hair of him for a year or so.

But wait.... what's this? ... A new U2 album on the horizon.....and all of a sudden the cunt is going to be splashed all over the front pages again. Am I that cynical to believe that he's cunt enough to actually use the misery of millions of people to sell records ?


Is it a chicken and egg scenario ? Did he start giving a fuck to sell millions of records and earn billions or did he start selling millions of records and then start giving a fuck ?


Am I that cynical ?
